Fasciola hepatica: effect of the natural light level on cercarial emergence from temperature-challenged Galba truncatula

As abrupt changes in water temperature (thermal shock) triggered a significantly greater cercarial emergence of Fasciola hepatica from experimentally infected Galba truncatula, laboratory investigations were carried out to study the influence of light on cercarial emergence in snails subjected to a...
